Intel N440BX

[Gamerguy68]

Can anyone tell me what's the fastest CPU this board will take? It is a Slot 1, and dual processor. I know it will run 100mhz PII, but wonder if I can use PIII Slot 1 100mhz also.

Here you go.

And here you go.

Yea, seen those but doesn't say if the 700 slot 1 100mhz is supported.

The 440BX chipset supports 66MHz and 100MHz FSB. It should support a PIII 700.

Guess I can always try
Thanks

be careful as a 700MHz slot 1 cpu will have a coppermine core & will require your m/board voltage regulator to supply a lower voltage than the katmai core cpus.

What would the 'safest' processor to stick to? Would the 600 or 550 be best? Not sure what voltage this board supports for cpu.
